Beacon and Eggs Revisit Sidney, BC
We’ve dined at Beacon and Eggs in lovely Sidney a few times for breakfast (seen here) and generally enjoyed our meals. Also, service has always been quite good. However, we haven’t had the best of luck when it comes to Beacon and Eggs’ sweet offerings. Fancy Pants French Toast ($9.95) – Gooey cinnamon swirl French […]
Third Street Cafe Review (Sidney, BC)
Located on Vancouver Island, Third Street Cafe is a little all day breakfast joint situated right on the corner of 3rd Street & Beacon Avenue in lovely Sidney, BC.

Located on Philip Avenue in North Vancouver, Tomahawk restaurant has been serving tasty meals since 1926 – making it one of the oldest family-run eateries in Canada.

The Red Wagon Cafe Revisit
We enjoyed our initial visit (seen here) to the incredibly popular Red Wagon Cafe in Vancouver. And after watching The Red Wagon Cafe highlighted on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives‘ Vancouver edition, we wanted to return to see how consistent this diner would be and if it’s still worthy of all the hype. Usually, there’s a […]

Jethro’s Fine Grub Review
I was sooo excited to try Jethro’s Fine Grub because of its extensive pancakes and french toast options. Their menu really sounded amazing. Sadly, I was disappointed in every single way possible… Let’s start from the very beginning. Since yesterday was a holiday, I called Jethro’s to see what time they closed in case they […]
Paul’s Place Omelettery Review
Paul’s Place Omelettery is, as you would expect, famous for their omelettes. The restaurant always seems to receive great reviews on food blogs, Urbanspoon, Yelp – and even the Lonely Planet ranked it #17 out of 600 things to do in Vancouver. With such high accolades, we decided to check out Paul’s. With its green […]
Waffle House Review (Apache Junction, Arizona)
My parents own a little place just outside of Phoenix, AZ, where they escape the damp and dreary Vancouver Island winters. We often spend holidays with them, and on this particular visit I was really keen on trying a Waffle House. I assume you’re aware of my love for all things breakfast: everything from strawberries […]
